Seminal Classic Return to the 36th Chamber Debuts As Well, Along With Dragon Dynasty's First Blu-ray Release
RETURN TO THE 36TH CHAMBER
Synopsis: The action-packed sequel to perhaps the greatest martial arts classic of all time reunites kung fu superstar Gordon Liu and legendary director Lau Kar-leung for another unforgettable adventure. This time, Liu stars as a con man who impersonates his own character from The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, along the way to becoming an unstoppable fighting force. This Shaw Brothers classic recaptures the magic of the original, but with an inspired twist that makes it "one of the rare sequels that's just as much fun as its predecessor" (Calvin McMillin, LoveHKFilm.com).
